4. 10 A input: this measurement input is unfused and is intended
for AC and DC currents up to 10 A max. (10 s duration max. with
15 min. pause between measurements).
5. V Ohm (+) input socket (positive connection) and mA input.
This input is for measuring direct currents up to max. 400 mA
(protected with a quick-blow 500mA fuse)
6. COM (-) input socket (COM or negative connection)
7. Overload display: if "0.L" appears in the display, this means
overload or the range has been exceeded
Observe the max. input levels.

Safety information

• Current measurements may only be carried out in circuits which
are themselves fused at 10 A or in which no voltage greater than
250 V DC/V AC rms or powers greater than 2500 VA can arise.
The measuring instrument must not be used in installations of
Overvoltage Category III in accordance with IEC. The measuring
instrument and test leads are not protected against arcing (IEC
1010-2-031, Section 13.101).
• The measuring instrument may only be used up to 300 V DC/AC
rms max in installations of Overvoltage Category II (CAT II) (AC
supply measurements).
• Only signal voltages (low current, electrically isolated from AC
supply) up to 600 V DC / AC max. may be measured in Over-
voltage Category I (CAT I) - no AC supply or power current
measurements!

• Measuring instruments and accessories do not belong in the
hands of children
• In commercial facilities the accident-prevention regulations of
the Industrial Employers' Liability Association for electrical
systems and equipment must be observed
• In schools, training facilities, hobby and self-help workshops,
the handling of measuring instruments must be supervised res-
ponsibly by trained personnel
• Take particular care when dealing with voltages greater than
25 V AC or greater than 35 V DC). Even at these voltages it is
possible to receive a lethal electric shock if electrical conductors
are touched.
Therefore, first of all switch off the voltage source to be measu-
red, connect the measuring instrument to the voltage source, set
